With his six months hiatus, Swedish DJ Avicii missed many things in the music scene. However that's not a bad case according to 25-year old best-selling artist, which scheduled to grace new Supernova stage at Future Music Festival 2015 and release a new album. The DJ, also known as Tim Bergling, added he's excited to go back in Australia.
"I took a break for six months and there's a lot of stuff from the last six months that I haven't even played yet, which I'm excited and nervous about," Avicii said in his interview with inthemix.
Bergling has 90-minute play time in every performance specifically on Supernova mainstage, which is created by Miami's Ultra Music James Klein. Future Music Festival will start on February 28 in Sydney and end in Adelaide on March 9. But apart from playing, his Australian fans will get special treat as he also plan to launch some tracks of his upcoming album in this festival.
"It looks really next level compared to the stuff I've done before, which was already next level," Avicii said. "I'm really excited to see how that pairs with all the new tracks I have. I haven't played anywhere for six months either so I'm excited about playing again in general."
Year 2013 when Avicii released his last album 'True,' a certified platinum- selling album, which hit songs such as ' Wake Me Up,' 'Hey Brother' and 'Addicted To You' were included. According to Billboard, 'Wake Me Up' is Spotify's most-streamed song with 339 million hits. Considering this success, what's special about Avicii's new album?
"There's a lot of different collaborators...there's like 60 people that I collaborated with," Bergling shared to inthemix about his upcoming project entitled 'Stories.'
Avicii has already released few tracks from the album such as 'The Days' and uplifting song "The Nights." The Nights was part of FIFA's 2015 official soundtrack and earned mark UK Top 10 without massive campaign.
